#DnDMusic #BardSong #TavernMusic The fight ended three days ago. She has not changed back. She drinks from a bucket, she signed the innkeeper's ledger with a paw print, and she has haggled down a merchant by sitting on his cart. This original D&D bard song is an upbeat medieval tavern song about a druid who will not drop her wild shape, and the very good reason underneath the joke. A fiddle-driven celtic folk drinking song for every table with a wild shape gremlin in it. 🎧 More bard songs on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2mpNdXU4kg1tFpovnK1LMN 🍺 The Bard speaks... "She was a bear for one fight. That was three days ago. The innkeeper has stopped asking questions. He just sets the bucket down, and lets her be something nobody expects anything from." — Songs of a Bard 🎲 The Bard's Wares Gear I'd stake my lute on, traveler: ◦ ⚔️ The greatest D&D adventure on screen → https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DBRB73GD?tag=songsofabard-20 ◦ 🐉 Your first adventure starts here → https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V84WNPK?tag=songsofabard-20 ◦ 🎲 Dice that roll like destiny → https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F817H27?tag=songsofabard-20 ◦ 📖 The adventurer's tome → https://www.amazon.com/dp/0786969822?tag=songsofabard-20 As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📜 LYRICS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Well, the fight is done and the smoke is thin, and they're calling me back to my skin— I was seven feet of shoulder and a very thoughtful roar. Now they're asking me politely to be five foot two once more. But the fur is warm, the claws are fine, the world is soft and low— and I have thought about it, friends, and I have chosen no. I'm staying a bear! I'm staying a bear! Pour it in a bucket, I'll be drinking over there! You can wave me down the contract, you can point me at the door— I'm staying a bear, and I'm staying on this floor! I signed the keeper's ledger with a paw print and a growl. He looked at it a long while, then he shrugged and poured it out. He has stopped asking questions. He has stopped asking my name. He just sets the bucket down for me and treats me much the same. I'm staying a bear! I'm staying a bear! Pour it in a bucket, I'll be drinking over there! You can wave me down the contract, you can point me at the door— I'm staying a bear, and I'm staying on this floor! I have haggled down a merchant by just sitting on his cart. I have won a staring contest with a duke and with his guard. The cleric tried my given name in the voice you'd use for hounds— so I put my chin upon the bar and made a bigger sound. And you think that I am hiding. Well— of course I am, my love. Nobody asks a bear to speak. Nobody asks a bear if she's enough. So I'll sit here by the fire where the light comes through the slats, and I'll let you plan the morning, and I'll listen where I'm at. And when the winter's over and the road is soft and clear, I'll be smaller, and I'll say so. But tonight I'm staying here. I'm staying a bear! I'm staying a bear! Pour it in a bucket, I'll be drinking over there! You can wave me down the contract, you can point me at the door— I'm staying a bear, and I'm staying on this floor! I'm staying a bear, I'm staying a bear. Keep a chair beside you, or don't, I do not care. When I'm ready I'll come back to you, I swear— but tonight, I'm staying a bear. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Songs of a Bard is a fireside corner of the fantasy world.
